Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Ni-rich Cathode Materials for Lithium Ion and Sodium Ion Batteries

What Ni-rich cathode materials are available for lithium-ion batteries?

Three grades are offered: M811 (D50 4.93 μm, 202.3 mAh/g, hollow structure), NCMA (D50 10.28 μm, 214.18 mAh/g, divergent structure), and an ultra-high-nickel grade (D50 4.20 μm, 230.5 mAh/g, small-particle agglomerate), all measured at 0.2C between 3–4.3 V.

What discharge capacity do the sodium-ion cathode materials provide?

The agglomerate NaNi₁/₃Fe₁/₃Mn₁/₃O₂ delivers 141.3 mAh/g at 0.2C with 96.21% capacity retention after 50 cycles at 1C, while the mono-crystal grade delivers 138.7 mAh/g at 0.2C with 97.40% retention, both measured between 2.0–4.0 V.

How do particle size and structure differ across the Ni-rich grades?

Particle size (D50) ranges from 4.20 μm to 10.28 μm, and morphology varies from hollow (M811) to divergent (NCMA) to small-particle agglomerate (ultra-high nickel), letting the material be matched to either high-power or extended-life cell designs.

What applications are these cathode materials suited for?

The Ni-rich lithium-ion cathodes are used mainly in electric vehicles, premium EVs, and premium electric tools, while the sodium-ion cathodes target low-speed electric vehicles, two-wheeled vehicles, and stationary energy storage.
